BUX X was launched in 2014 as a platform to trade CFDs. Year after year, it has continued to evolve and now the next iteration is ‘Stryk’. With these two brands we aim to differentiate between two types of investors: those in it for the long term can choose BUX Zero, and those trading for the short term can continue to use all of the functions loved in BUX X, but now with Stryk. While we are diverging the brands, BUX will still be able to cater to the needs of our clients across Europe, whatever their financial goals are.
The new brand of Stryk
The newly re-designed app will maintain BUX X’s blue colour. All the other colours such as red, green, purple, and orange have been removed to create a clean, professional look. The company highlighted that the the diagonal lines in Stryk’s new logo represent the active markets. In a similar way, the app icon displays “up and down” arrows, illustrating the core nature of trading.
Executive leadership and management changes
As part of its expansion plans in Europe, BUX has made several business changes over the last year. In July 2021, Salim Sebbata was named new CEO of the UK CFD unit. Jean Raphael Nahas, was later hired as managing director of the BUX Cyprus CFD operations.
BUX has also secured a new regulatory licence that allows it to further expand within the post-Brexit environment of the EU.
